Would it surprise you to learn that this is a net that stretches over your LoadWarrior to keep your gear nice and secure? If so, well, maybe you need to lie down for a while.

- Custom fit for your LoadWarrior and extended baskets
- No-tangle hooks make them easy to wrangle
- Product # 07072 Q: How many hooks are there?
A: There are about 16 hooks on the stretch net. The hooks are actually dual sided so that they can fit on either the thicker top bar or skinnier sidebars.

Q: What is it made of?
A: The cord is latex rubber in a nylon casing. The hooks are injection-molded nylon.

Q: Will the stretch net work on my factory (non-Yakima) rack?
A: The stretch net is designed exclusively for use with a Yakima MegaWarrior, and not recommended for other applications.

Q: Will the stretch net work on a MegaWarrior or BasketCase?
A: Custom sized stretch nets are available for both of these products. While similar in design, get the right size for best fit and function.

"Couple minor complaints, but should not be without"

Rating:*****
So far I've only used it once when packing up a huge load on the roof. I felt it added an extra layer of safety. I needed help securing it in place because the net could not reach the other side without someone else to stretch it out. It did, however, stretch to fit the entire mound. I might be able to secure it single-handedly if I had less bulk on the roof. Another minor beef, the hooks catch on to the netting so it can be somewhat annoying to untangle while stretching and reaching while on top of a step stool around the car. Despite this, it's something you really should not be without if you have the load warrior.

Simple yet...

OK, they do the job as intended, but if you do not store the net properly it turns into a spider web of tangled confusion.

The cord is nice and thick, the hooks are strong. The net will suffer UV damage over time, so be aware as the years go on. Although they do stretch, you are still somewhat limited to smaller items.

No question. It's a must have and it's superb...

Rating:*****

If you bought the load warrior then the stretch net is a must have. The rope is much more thick and durable than the picture suggests. The hooks click in place ensuring that gear stays put. Agree with another reviewer that it can get a bit tangled when its off but nonetheless it's a must have addition to the load warrior.

"What can I say, it's a net."

Rating:****
Ok, sure it's just a net, but this thing is a lot nicer than I was expecting. It's got heavy bungy cords, lots of clips. This thing definately makes it quick and easy to toss bags up and secure them, then stores compactly in the back of the car when it's not needed.

"If you have a LoadWarrior you gotta have it."

Rating:****
Works great with the LoadWarrior. I wouldn't use the basket fully loaded without it. The only problem is opening it up to use it. It has so many hooks that they they caught in the netting. I suppose any net worth anything would do the same, so I good with it.
Tim at Moosejaw on 02/28/2009

If you get the basket, you cant go without this

Rating:*****

Thick, quality rope and plastic hooks keep your stuff in place...WELL. I was stoked when I got it and found out it was stretchy. Your stuff isn't going anywhere. The only bad thing I can say about this is what a huge mess it is when it gets all tangled up

You've gotta get this!

Rating:*****

This made life sooo much easier. Better than bungee cords! The unique clips they designed snap over the bars very easily and have a great little outside hook that is easy to grasp when taking the net off. 100% satisfied!

Got the net and the basket about a year ago. Great items, keeps lots of stuff snug. Havent had any problem with anything becoming air borne even at high speed or bumping around off road.
Very durable.

Load Warrior Stretch Net

Rating:*****

This is the single best "tie-down" piece of equipment out there. No need to mess with knots or single bungees. Will probably buy a second one just to help tie down stuff INSIDE the car's trunk.
